Guy down the road has a 1994 power stroke 4x4 1 ton for sale w/ gooseneck bed. The truck runs great but it cuts off every once in a while going down the road but restarts right back up. What could be wrong with it? He wants 7000. for it. It looks great but that cutting off scares me some. Thanks guys .

If I recall correctly, the "powerstroke" name was not used untill 95'. 94' was the first year of the "turbo diesel", but it was slightly different than the 95' "powerstroke". As others have said, most likely a crank or cam position sensor. Had a 97' that left my wife stranded many a times because of a crank position sensor.

Hi Tn,

Did the 94 have a CPS? I don't think so but I'm not completely up on the 94's, 97's and on?

I would be looking for fuel shut off problem.

I would also reset the puter by disconnecting the battery's. This clears codes and resets all electronins to the default values.

If it has a computer it has a CPS. I had a 93 turbo diesel, and the injection pump was purely mechancical. In 94 you could get both the mechanical turbo diesel and the powerstroke. By 95 all you could get was the powerstroke.

John, what happened when you used an IH CPS? I've never heard of any issues. In fact, some pleople claim the IH one gives better performance because it supposedly triggers easier and therefore advances the timing a little.

Its not the IH CPS, its the 466 CPS.It does not advance the timing, it retards it.The 444 cps advacnes the 466, so theres no way the 466 would advance the 444 timing.(Stock) My problems were that the retarded timing confused the computer enough to shut down. I had put maybe 30 miles on it and she died.I replaced the blue cps with the one I took out and nothing. Sine I dont live too awful far from a certain semifamous chip burner, I took my computer to him and he checked it and said it was bad.He fixed it just enough to be able to pull codes and several showed up all dirctly linked to the cps. I know have one of his computers and his chip in my truck, along with a IH cps for a 444.

My '94 pwrstk 3/4 did the same thing. My Diesel mech. told me to put in a new cps and throw the old one in the glove box. That did the trick, I guess it's quite common. Keep the old one and if the new ever fails completely you know the old one will get you home. I think it's a 10mm wench.

Hey TN, I'd have to agree with a couple of the previous comments... sounds to me like the CPS. My PSD just turned over 80K... was driving down the road one day an' she just quit. Would crank over, but showed no signs of wanting to run. Waited about 45 minutes and tried again, she started an' I got her back home... replaced the CPS & have had NO problems since. Bought sensor through local International dealer for about $90... no worries. A friend of mine told me he had bought one through Ford (heckuva lot more $$)& when he opened the package, he found a binder logo! HTH
Regards, D.L.

I agree, the cam sensor is the most likely and most common culprit. I don`t know about the 466 one being the same. I would tend to go right thru Ford for it. Other than that, you`d have to get it somewhere where they can pull codes, and check the data stream to hopefully catch the problem. I don`t like throwing parts at something, but sometimes replacing a component that has a high failure rate is the quickest easiest fix. Hope this helps Brokenwrench

If you do buy it, asnd it is the cam sensor that is the problem DO NOT put a CPS for a 466 in it. I have my reasons such as it causing alot of damage to my trucks computer system,just my luck.I do not think the CPS is the problem to start with,unless the symptoms just started.

Classis powerstroke problem. The cam position sensor design is poor & they tend to get flakey after a while. Takes about 10 minutes to replace one, they cost about $150 at the dorf dealer, $100 from mail order places, & maybe cheaper on e-bay. One for an IH DT-466 engine will also work.

Obviously, there are other possible intermittant problems, but the CPS is where I'd look first. If a new CPS doesn't fix it, throw the old one in the glove box as a spare because you'll eventually need it. Just replaced the one in my '99 a couple months ago.
